If there is any fairness in the universe please please please Leon give Covington a brutal head kick knockout which leaves him I'm retirement!
Colby's a tool. I hope he gets a good beating by Edwards.
Mod Edit
Warning issued.
After that comment I hope he gets KO'd in brutal fashion. What an utter scumbag thing to say.
He said he was only in character in the weigh in which somehow makes it worse.
I get this is a violent sport and you have to sell a fight, but their has to be some sort of line you can't cross.
I seen Strickland dropping the homophobe F bomb and Sean O Malley taunting him over his dad abusing him, its not going to stop me watching it but it does make it look so scummy (even more so than usual!).
MVP vs Holland has been announced for Miami, a huge step up in competition for him and realistically too late in his career but given he's got Holland first, it looks like they are going to fast track him
Ryan Curtis has suffered a very serious spinal injury, looks life changing, poor chap and his young family.
Sounds horrific the poor guy. Broken neck and broken back along with severe damage to his spinal cord, so soon after Ian Coughlan too.
Justin Geatjhe V Max Holloway is a fight I never thought about, absolute banger! Not sure I give max much of a chance though. 299 and 300 are 2 great cards now can't wait
Is it a catch-weight fight?
Lightweight, 5 rounds for the gimmick belt
Not sure how Max will do at lightweight although if he can maintain his speed and the weight adds a bit of power it could be fun.
I reckon we could see max dropped for the first time and maybe finished. Porrier fight showed us how undersized max is for 155lbs
Why would it be a catch weight fight
Very rare to see a catch weight ufc fight, and only ever on very short notice
Justin will maul him, way to big and strong ,
I love Max, but he doesn't have the power or the reach for 155 imo
I don't see the point in the fight, Max doesn't have the power to keep Geatjhe off him and the win gets neither fighter closer to a title
That'll be pure violence but I agree Justin wins too powerful.
Kayla Harrison finally signs to the UFC to fight holly Holm at ufc 300. No idea how she's going to make 135.
Aspinal was offered Stipe for 300 aswell, would love that. Can't see stipe taken that fight tho when he's guarenteed Jones
I doubt that fight happens at 135, either 145 or a catch weight I'd say. Its more than 15 years since she got close to 135
There is no 145lb division anymore is there?
Nope Dana said 135.
I assume she is getting the Pereira fast track treatment.
Dunno what to make of it, sounds like a mad weight cut to have to make and unless Nunes is coming back I don't see the money match for her.
Although to be fair 50% of the reason for signing her was to piss off the PFL if I had to guess.
Wanderlei into the illustrious UFC hall of fame with a 5-7 record in the promotion, so I can only assume that they are taking his pride fights into account. Looking forward to Fedor in next round 😂
Have to say the main event of 300 is a major let down…
Once 298 and 299 cards were made it was obvious 300 wasn't going to be anything special. Leon Edwards was offered 3 different fights for 300 so I'd say this main event was well down Dana's list. Poor belal. An unknown Amanda nunes headlines ufc 200
In fairness, nobody is getting excited for a Belal Muhammad fight
Hill v Pereira at least is two finishers going at it although obviously I suspect they would have wanted it to headline the Brazil PPV so I doubt it was their first choice.
Belal deserves the title shot from a merit PPV, but I have no interest in seeing him v Leon and I suspect the vast majority would agree with me unfortunately.
